From finding out if water conducts electricity, to discovering how energy is transferred, Cambridge Primary Science gets your learners thinking like scientists! Packed with opportunities to plan experiments, make predictions and gather results, the series helps your learners think and work scientifically. Each unit ends with a project, like creating a presentation on worm farms, that helps learners bring together what they have learnt and understand how the topics relate to the real world. With vocabulary boxes, clear diagrams and supporting illustrations, the course makes science accessible for learners with English as a second language.
